fullermd> On Tue, Apr 22, 2014 at 01:05:26PM +0200 I heard the voice of fullermd> Richard Levitte, and lo! it spake thus: fullermd> > fullermd> > I guess that interest is pretty damn non-existent then... fullermd> > fullermd> > [...] fullermd> > fullermd> > Deadline: mid may, I plan on pruning away free.lp.se and all that's fullermd> > included in it in the weekend of may 17-18. fullermd> fullermd> Ah, well, I read it as more a "hey, I'm not really doing anything fullermd> here, somebody who is feel free to pick it up" than a "get it away, fullermd> get it away, kill it!" 8-} It's a little in between. I don't really want to kill ctwm permanently, it's just that I'm cleaning up the clutter in my life, getting rid of loose ends, and I'm thinking that if I've no interest in doing work on ctwm myself, having lie around on my server will just have end up as a dusty pile of bits... it's better that someone who cares a bit more takes over. It's Spring, I'm doing Spring Cleaning! ;-) fullermd> While I don't get time to do much, I do maintain an interest (hey, fullermd> I've even pushed up 2 commits already this year! ;). I can certainly fullermd> take over web site handling. Probably mailing lists too. Do you want to have the member list for easy take-over? fullermd> Code repo may be another story. I don't feel like I know mtn well fullermd> enough to feel comfortable hosting it. A little browsing around only fullermd> turns up one seemingly-live 3rd party hosting site. So maybe it would fullermd> be time to VCS-migrate as part of the process. I suppose you're talking about code.monotone.ca? fullermd> Richard mentioned the github mirror; it's a couple commits behind, but fullermd> that's presumably trivial to update. I'm not a big git fan, but it's fullermd> out there and there are lots of hosting options. I do love bzr, which fullermd> has several hosting options, but while somewhat more lively than mtn, fullermd> it's not by leaps and bounds sadly. I'm not aware of any existing fullermd> ctwm momentum or users pushing hg, which seals up the triumvirate of fullermd> the common DVCSen (in my experience, anyway). So with hg not being fullermd> pushed at all, bzr probably only by me, and mtn not obviously fullermd> attractive from the project management direction, it seems like we may fullermd> wind up with git by default :| Well, at least it's not CVS... Whichever way you choose to go, I'm sure you'll do fine ;-) -- Richard Levitte [email protected] http://richard.levitte.org/ "Life is a tremendous celebration - and I'm invited!" -- from a friend's blog, translated from Swedish
